Genesis 39-40 – Joseph’s life is the stuff of nightmares. Betrayed, enslaved, falsely accused, imprisoned and seemingly forgotten – this is Joseph’s lot. From this grim account, Christians can learn 2 facts about hard times: firstly, God is with us, and secondly so is temptation.

Genesis 23-24 – Luck? Fate? Chance? Every description falls short. Again through Abraham’s life, we see that God directs our every step. He also gives us assurances of His care along the way. Prepare to be encouraged.

Genesis 22 – Unbelievably, God tells Abraham to kill his son Isaac and offer him as a burnt offering. What will Abraham do? Through Abraham and Isaac we learn invaluable lessons about faith and God’s grand plan to provide a substitute for sinners.

Genesis 17 – Faith is believing what God says, but we struggle to do just that! As God re-affirms His covenant with Abram, we’re encouraged to live lives of faith – even when God’s promises seem too good to be true.
